Signs of fall

Jeneric and Jenni went on a neighborhood walk, looking for signs of fall. Here's our photographic evidence of fall in ND.

Guess the movie...

The girls are into movies these days. Here they are re-enacting a scene from one of their favorites. Can you guess the movie?

Child labor laws

mean nothing around here, where the tykes toil for hours in the mines before we send them to bed. In footed pajamas.

I do myself

As you might imagine, with two opinionated 'little people' running around this house, there's bound to be several instances of doing things on their own. Two recent examples:

1. Making one's own peanut butter sandwich.

2. Peeling a hard-boiled egg.

Bonus picture Friday

Yeah, this picture is really not going to win us any favors with PETA. But we love it all the same.

It's been a while

We've been busy transitioning to new routines. The blog slipped away...

Jeneric started gymnastics lessons a few weeks ago (she won a free class at a local place, which was fortuitous since she asked to take them. What is unusual is her enthusiasm and willingness to try anything new in this class. Yes, this is the girl who won't go down a slide, but will hurl her body into somersaults if you ask). At the end of each lesson, she gets a gymnastic-themed coloring sheet.

Here's her first sheet:

Yes, it is cut into several pieces. Jeneric has grand designs to split this among friends and family. She has similar plans for this week's coloring sheet.

The question is: will she grown up to be Will Shortz or Tony Soprano?
